Graham Votes Against Budget Deal

Passes Senate 64-36 and will now go to President Obama

Lorcan Connick (202) 224-5972 or Kevin Bishop (864) 250-1417


I find it ironic that a few years ago the Senate was forced to stay in Washington and vote on Obamacare on Christmas Eve. Yet now we won't stay a few extra days to fix this injustice to our military retirees.

Graham, Schumer, Menendez, McCain, Casey, Collins Urge Administration Not to Accept Iran Deal that Cuts Back Sanctions but Allows Iranian Nuclear Program to Continue

Lorcan Connick, 202-224-5972


WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, U.S. Senators Lindsey Graham, Charles E. Schumer, Robert Menendez, John McCain, Bob Casey and Susan Collins wrote to Secretary of State John Kerry, expressing their support for negotiations but cautioning the Administration against accepting a deal with Iran that would roll back economic sanctions without also rolling back progress towards nuclear weapons capability. According to media reports, Administration negotiators have considered accepting an agreement that would provide relief for the Iranian regime from the debilitating economic sanctions while only requiring the Iranians to halt their work towards a nuclear weapon, rather than undoing the progress they have already made.

Graham Introduces Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act

The Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act is the new front in protecting the rights of the unborn.

Lorcan Connick (202) 224-5972 or Kevin Bishop (864) 250-1417
We now know that an unborn child at the twentieth week of pregnancy can feel pain. In fact, anesthesia is administered directly to unborn children in second trimester fetal surgery. Given these facts and my continued strong support for life, I believe there is a compelling interest in protecting these unborn children who are among the most vulnerable in our society.
